"[b]She is beautiful indeed, but not in the traditional way...That's for sure.[/b]" Ginger chimed in, leaning closer to The Princess so that Irina couldn't hear, though it seemed she intended for the opposite to happen. Ginger was a shady one. 
"Nonsense! I'll have to be the one doing all of the protecting tonight once those men get a look at her..." Crystal responded, her devilish grin now replaced by a more sincere smile. Could it be that she really did like Irina, and wasn't just saying it to make her knight feel better? The subtle hint of worry in her voice would have you believe so.
"[b]Yes, well. It's not like she'd be interested in those men, M'lady..."[/b] Gingers words had many meanings, all which left The Princess confused. 
Crystal blinked innocently, seriously trying to figure out what that little maid meant. That Ginger always had a way of just [i]knowing[/i] things. It was kind of annoying at first to Crystal, but overtime she grew to appreciate it about the girl. "Wha-?" Was all Crystal managed to get out before Irina intruded upon their conversation to ask about her sword, though Crystal knew by the way she cleared her voice beforehand that she didn't like them talking behind her back. It was only a ploy to separate them. Of course ginger was quick to explain the rules of the Alegasia theater to Irina, and naturally her knight would have a problem with it. "You won't need it, Irina. No one is allowed weapons in the theater except the doormen, so don't worry. We'll be safe!" Crystal spoke confidently, like she knew this for a fact and that Irina had no reason to doubt her. 

The Princess twirled around skillfully just once so that her dress fanned out at her feet, and then looped her arm through Irina's. [i]Mmm, she smells delightful...[/i] Crystal hugged Irina's arm close to her body and leaned on her comfortably. "We can leave shortly, don't be hasty, dear." She said softly, closing her eyes momentarily in her blissful moment. The maids smiled at the sight and then dismissed themselves. Crystal opened her eyes at the sound of the door closing and frowned a bit. She wished Ginger would have stayed to chat. [i]I suppose she has other things to do...[/i] Really, she just wanted to ask her why she thought Irina wouldn't be interested in any of the men.
